Yep, just another PC build n00b looking for a good, cost-effective build for around $1200 (keep in mind i'm from Australia). Any help would be greatly appreciated :).

I'm starting from scratch which means no screen, peripherals, OS, HDD, etc. I'm looking to use the system for browsing and gaming mostly. Games like BF3, Bioshock, GTA, Dishonored and a variety of MMORPG's.

I currently have no interest in overclocking but it'd be nice to have to option to do so. I'd be happy playing at 1080p resolution on around a 23" screen. I'll also need a wireless PCI card as i don't have an ethernet port.

As i said before, i'd love to hear your suggestions! If you need any more information just ask. Thanks :D
